New York Chiropractic College (NYCC) is a private alternative health college in Seneca Falls, New York. It has graduate programs in areas such as chiropractic, acupuncture and oriental medicine, and health sciences and education.

It is one of 18 chiropractic colleges in the United States. The school was founded in New York City as Columbia Institute of Chiropractic by chiropractor Frank Dean in 1919. In 1989, unable to expand in Long Island, NYCC purchased the former Eisenhower College campus in Seneca Falls, New York. After two years of renovations the college moved to the Seneca Falls campus in 1991.

NYCC, a mixed chiropractic and oriental medicine institution, continues to expand and introduce new programs. In addition to a D.C. program, the college now offers programs in acupuncture and Oriental medicine, clinical nutrition, sports nutrition, diagnostic imaging, anatomy, and human anatomy & physiology instruction.

The college also runs 4 community clinics: Seneca Falls, Depew, New York, Levittown, New York, and Rochester, New York. In addition, the school is affiliated with the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland and Veterans Hospitals in Rochester, New York, Buffalo, New York, Canandaigua, New York, Bath, New York, and Miami, Florida.

Clinical outreach

NYCC extended clinical outreach efforts to Veterans Administration Medical Centers and to institutions of higher education, improving opportunities for its student interns and providing chiropractic services for patients visiting the facilities. Such clinical opportunities include affiliations with the Veterans Administration Medical Centers (VAMCs) in Miami, FL, and Bath, NY, as well as clinical care programs offered by the College at the Buffalo, Canandaigua, and Rochester VAMCs. NYCC also offers patient services at the Health and Wellness Centers at State University of New York (SUNY) at Stony Brook, Buffalo and Farmingdale as well as at Saint John Fisher College in Rochester, NY.[citation needed]

Notable alumni

NYCC alumnus Karyn Marshall became a chiropractor in addition to her weightlifting career; she was inducted into the USA Weightlifting Hall of Fame in 2011. Arnold Schwarzenegger (left) presented the award.
